"Aliens Get the Sniffles Too!" written by @katyduffield.bsky.social. Illustrated by K. G. Campbell. A little alien is sick, and his family is trying to help him feel better- especially their dog Mars Rover. Cute illustrations and lots of fun onomatopoeia. Kids were cracking up at this one.

Cover of "Aliens Get the Sniffles Too!" Written by Katy S. Duffield. Illustrated by K. G. Campbell. Background is outer space, young blue alien sneezes "AHHH-CHOO!" towards his yellow alien dog with 3 eyes.
